I have 2 Pc's with SH4 installed on it. One PC is a Win-7 with SH4-1.5 (Ubisoft download) and the other is a Win-8.1 with SH4 1.4 (Steam) and a SH4 1.4 (Original CD). I'd like to know if there is any way to play a LAN game with them. Both PC's are connected to the same DSL router.

Using that network I can play many games as a LAN. I see the LAN option on the SH4 Mp menu. I can create and play a LAN game but I can't seem to see how to connect to a game I created from another PC.

Another ? Is there a dedicated server option for SH4?

They both must be running the exact same game version and I would use 1.5 for both. they also must have the exact same mod order. Then it is a simple matter of going into the multiplayer aspect of the game and adding the correct information for server and client.

!Thank's for Your Help.
Can a SH5 LAN or MP from UBI connect to a SH5 LAN or MP from Steam? Or do they both have to be from the same vendor?

P.S. I find that most MP games need the same files on each system. Some MP games will download the missing files from the host server to the client.

it shouldnt matter as long as everyone has the right dlc/add ons or mods and it just boils down to connecting to the ip like i play defiance from Glyph and my friends downloaded it from Steam but we can still play.
